Southeast Engine
These guys started up in Guided By Voices-era Dayton, and now hang their hats in Athens, OH–land of the beloved (bygone?) Burrito Buggy. So, there are some cool things about Ohio other than GBV. I mean, burritos…in the heartland! What a wondrous thing. And now Ohio–Harbinger of Greatness–brings us Southeast Engine. What’s next, electing an awesome president? (Oh, right. Check that off the list, too.) That’s it, I’m moving to Ohio. And voting thrice. On the way, I’ll come to terms with gravity, feeling the traction of rubber pushing road behind, grounded but moving forward evenly like this track, spare like farmers’ fields, the space between fenceposts. It will probably be overcast, with dogs in passing yards. I will definitely be wearing my favorite jeans, faded but just right.
For a faster, funner, more jangly listen, check out Black Gold, off the band’s latest, From the Forest to the Sea.
They’re playing SXSW this year as well, so keep an eye out for some good live tracks on one of these sites:
